    <description>&lt;P&gt;I have uploaded a video to the dropbox, and I want to host this video on my html website, while the video itself will be in the dropbox. Is it possible to do this?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Unfortunately there isn't really a good way to do this via the Dropbox API, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Currently, you could retrieve the video data via &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-download" target="_self"&gt;/2/files/download&lt;/A&gt;, but you'd need to pass that through your server anyway to avoid exposing your access token client-side.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Alternatively, you could technically get a shared link for the file using &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-create_shared_link_with_settings" target="_self"&gt;/2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings&lt;/A&gt;, and &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/files-folders/share/force-download" target="_self"&gt;modify it for direct access&lt;/A&gt; so you can pass that to a video player. That would be subject to &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/files-folders/share/banned-links" target="_self"&gt;bandwidth limits&lt;/A&gt; though.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
